Simulink Modeling of Mass-Spring Systems

This document describes MATLAB assignments for modeling physical systems using Simulink. It includes exercises to model a mass-spring system, simulate the system with varying damping coefficients, find the response when no input is applied but with initial velocity, and model a cruise control system. The assignments involve constructing Simulink diagrams, defining parameter values in M-files, and simulating and plotting the outputs to analyze the system responses under different conditions.

Modeling of Physical Systems using SIMULINK

Mass Spring System Model:


Consider the Mass-Spring system used in the previous exercise as shown
in the figure. Where Fs(x) is the spring force, Ff(x) is the friction
coefficient, x(t) is the displacement and Fa(t) is the applied force:

The differential equation for the above Mass-Spring system can then be written as
follows:

For Non-linear such case, (1) becomes


Exercise 1: Modeling of a second order system
Construct a Simulink diagram to calculate the response of the Mass-Spring system.
The input force increases from 0 to 8 N at t = 1 s. The parameter values are M = 2
kg, K = 16 N/m, and B = 4 N/m.

Solution:

Exercise 2: Simulation with system parameter variation


The effect of changing B is to alter the amount of overshoot or undershoot. These
are related to a term called the damping ratio. Simulate and compare the results of
the variations in B in exercise 1. Take values of B = 4, 8, 12, 25 N-s/m.

Exercise 3: System response from the stored energy with zero input
Find the response of the above system when there is no input for t ≥ 0, but when the
initial value of the displacement x (0) is zero and the initial velocity v (0) is 1
m/s.

Exercise 4: Cruise System
As we know in the cruise system, the spring force Fs (x) = 0 which means that K = 0
Equation (2) becomes

Or

Find the velocity response of the above system by constructing a Simulink block
diagram and calling the block diagram from Matlab m-file. Use M=750, B=30 and a
constant force Fa = 300. Plot the response of the system such that it runs for 125
seconds.
